Agartala: Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha pushed his party agenda in North Tripura on November 9. He gathered local leaders in Dharmanagar to map out strategy for the urban local body elections set for November 27. The district contest covers the 25-ward Dharmanagar Municipal Council and the 13-ward Panisagar Nagar Panchayat.
Saha attacked his political rivals during the meeting. He told the crowd, "You are aware of the Congress and CPM; people are not accepting them at present." Despite the ongoing Kali Puja holiday season, the Chief Minister noted a heavy turnout for his party session.
The BJP expects a clean sweep across the state. Saha stated he wants to win all 21 urban local bodies to hand the result to the Prime Minister as a gift. He also spent time visiting local Kali Puja pandals during his trip. He noted that public festivities and religious events help build community ties while giving local traders a chance to boost their sales.
